However, Liu Hua, the Prime Minister of Chu, stayed.
"Hmph, then Liu Feng is used to buying people's hearts, but these white jade, coins, beauties, and horses are nothing. The lonely king is sitting in Jingchu. There are many of them. If he sends the lonely king to Xiangyang and expands the lonely king's fiefdom,
The lonely king will be grateful. But these, huh." Because only Liu Hua was left, Liu Pan could no longer hide his disdain and snorted repeatedly.
"What does your Majesty mean?" Liu Hua asked upon seeing this.
"The white jade was broken into pieces, the coins were recast, the horses were given to the soldiers, and the beauties were sent to the singing studio. Hey, the lonely king doesn't need these." Liu Pan said with a sneer.
"No." Liu Hua agreed and immediately sent someone to deal with it. Liu Pan stopped for a moment, then got up and walked to a remote corner of the palace.[
Not long after, I suddenly came to the outside of a house. This house was not only remote, but also very simple. However, there was a person sitting on his knees in the yard, drinking and eating leisurely.
This man was handsome and imposing, and he was Yan Zhen, the envoy from Jiangdong. For some reasons, Yan Zhen did not return to Jiangdong, but stayed in the palace of the King of Chu.
"Sir, is there any news from Bashu?" After arriving here, Liu Pan was not polite and came directly to Yan Zhen's side and asked.
"We have news. The King of Shu is weak and can only sit on the wall and watch. He does not dare to send troops to Hanzhong." Yan Jin said with a smile after hearing this.
"Then sir, you're still laughing?" Liu Pan felt discouraged when he heard this, and when he saw Yan Zhen's expression, he said angrily.
"As long as the king and the Marquis of Wu join forces to conquer Xiangyang, the momentum will be enough. Whether the King of Shu succeeds or not is just the icing on the cake. It will be beautiful if he sends troops, and it will be fine if he doesn't." Yan Zhen said with a smile.
It is indeed true, as long as the momentum is enough. And Yan Zhen also knows that if they are as powerful as a rainbow, Liu Zhang will not be able to sit still.
Anyway, things in Bashu cannot affect Jingchu.
"Sigh." Liu Pan was still depressed after hearing this. He and Liu Zhang were from the same clan. It would be great if they could depend on each other. Liu Zhang was much kinder than Sun Ce.
Yan Zhen didn't know what Liu Pan was thinking at this moment. After saying this, he stood up and saluted Liu Pan and said: "It's settled now, and the foreign ministers have to report the affairs of the King of Shu to the Marquis of Wu. That's it."
Farewell."
"Sir, you will go on your own. Once the date for dispatching the troops is agreed upon, we will send someone to inform the lonely king." Liu Pan was not polite when he heard this and said.
"Okay." Yan Zhen said, said goodbye and left.
"Huh." After Yan Zhen left, Liu Pan breathed out, and his heart felt settled. Anyway, he had done everything right, so he just walked all the way to the dark side.
"Next, it's time to train our troops and attack Liu Feng together with the princes. The lonely king wants to truly be the king of Chu." Then, Liu Pan took a deep breath, looked up at the sky, and his heart was burning.
…………
Liu Pan was planning his grand plan for Chu State, and after Yan Zhen left the palace, he immediately left Jiangling and sailed down the river to Chaisang.
Chaisang is very close to Jiangxia. It is of great strategic significance to arrive there in one day. Since Zhou Yu retreated from Jiangling, he led his troops to garrison in Chaisang. More importantly, Sun Ce is also in Chaisang.
The city of Chaisang is not big, but it is very high and very strong. There are many soldiers on the city and it is heavily guarded. The people, travelers and caravans entering the city are strictly inspected.
However, as Yan Zhen was the envoy of Jiangdong, he naturally did not need to be interrogated. He entered the city smoothly and arrived outside the general's mansion in the center of the city.[
Outside the general's mansion, Yan Zhen stopped for a moment and asked the guard outside the door to go in and report.
The general's mansion belonged to Zhou Yu. Zhou Yu was magnanimous, so the decoration was very elegant. It was not an ordinary rough warrior's mansion. At this moment, Zhou Yu and Sun Ce were drinking in the front yard.
The two were sitting opposite each other, with a table in the middle, wine and food on it, and a singer playing piano music nearby. The two were extremely beautiful people, Sun Ce's beauty lay in his handsomeness, and Zhou Yu's beauty lay in his elegance and handsomeness.
Coupled with the surrounding environment and the sound of the piano, it is really beautiful.
"Wuhou, General, Mr. Yan is back." At this moment, guards came in to report.
"Please come in." Sun Ce was drinking. Hearing this, he immediately put down his glass and said.
"No." The guard promised and went to invite him.
"Haha, Yan Man just came out, how could he not realize the success immediately and drink this cup first to celebrate." Zhou Yu raised the wine pot with a smile, filled Sun Ce's cup, and said.
"It makes sense." Sun Ce felt that it made sense after hearing this. He smiled and raised his glass to have a drink with Zhou Yu.
"Hahaha." After drinking the cup, Zhou Yu and Sun Ce laughed loudly, as if Jing Chu had it at their fingertips.
